Chapter 1365: Xia Hou of Fengdu

Editor: Atlas Studios

Lu Aotian’s body trembled!

Damn it!

It was such a big secret. He didn’t want to know!

Su Xiaoxiao immediately walked over.

Wei Qing handed her the City Lord Seal.

Su Xiaoxiao flipped it around. “Is this the City Lord Seal? Feng, Du, Xia, Hou.”

Fengdu City, Xiahou family.

Coupled with the special jade quality of this seal, it was enough to show its uniqueness.

But why was it mixed in Erhu’s stones?

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Xing’er in surprise.

Xing’er could tell that her lady was surprised and puzzled. She shook her head. “I don’t know either.”

“I’ll ask Erhu!”

“Miss, ask tomorrow.”

“I can’t wait!”

This was a serious matter. She had to figure out the origin of the City Lord Seal.

Su Xiaoxiao entered the three little ones’ room. The three of them were sleeping soundly.

Su Xiaoxiao lay on the bed and poked Erhu’s face. She called out softly, “Erhu, Erhu.”

Erhu opened his eyes in a daze and called out softly, “Mother.”

Su Xiaoxiao’s heart was about to melt. She took out the City Lord Seal and waved it in front of him. “Erhu, is this yours?”

Erhu was the child with the best temper. He was not angry when he was disturbed while sleeping. He tried his best to open his small eyes to take a look.

“It’s… Erhu’s…”

“Where did you get it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked again.

“Exchanged… Fortune-changing little Seone… with Grandpa City Lord…”

“Fortune-changing little stone?”

Su Xiaoxiao was puzzled.

What kind of small stone could make Xiahou Qing willingly exchange it for the City Lord Seal?

Did you exchange gold and stones with him?

No, this could not be exchanged for gold.

Erhu crawled into Su Xiaoxiao’s arms and said in a daze, “Grandpa City Lord drank too much…”

The corners of Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched.

So that was what happened.

On the day of the arrest of Elder Liu, Xiahou Qing was jealous of Wei Xu again. In order to help Wei Xu out, Ling Yun kept Xiahou Qing for dinner.

Xiahou Qing was happy and drank a few glasses. He was drunk.

It was said that he even lay on the ground and let the three children ride him like a big horse. His back ached from riding, and he swayed as he walked.

“Oh, that seems to be the case.”

Ling Yun came over from Azure Cloud Palace. After hearing the ins and outs, he recalled the scene that day. “What did Erhu say to him? He even showed him his small stone. I didn’t care.”

It was mainly because he did not expect Erhu to have designs on the City Lord Seal.

“The City Lord Seal is indeed beautiful,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

The material of the City Lord Seal was an extremely rare Hetianjade. The carving was complicated and the patterns were exquisite. It was smaller than the imperial jade seal and was convenient to carry.

“Erhu has good taste.”

Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but praise her son again.

It was rare for Ling Yun to feel that his little evil disciple had done something big.

What the two of them did not know was that there was actually a small interlude in this matter.

After Xiahou Qing caught Elder Liu secretly brought the dragon crystal out of the residence, he basically confirmed Xiahou Yi’s ambition.

Logically speaking, he should have gone back immediately to denounce Xiahou Yi.

At this moment, Ling Yun asked him to stay for dinner. If he was bent on to questioning Xiahou Yi and rejected Ling Yun’s invitation, he would definitely “fall into the trap” with the City Lord Seal.

Fortunately, he didn’t do that.

He had drunk too much during dinner and was tricked by Erhu. He even gave up the City Lord Seal.

When he returned to the City Lord Manor, he sobered up.

At that time, he wanted to return and ask for the City Lord Seal. He even asked Steward Chang to bring the carriage to the Hundred Flowers Palace.

Steward Chang asked him why he went again after returning.

He thought about it and decided to ask Erhu for it back tomorrow.

In the past, he would definitely not “not value” the City Lord Seal so much.

However, inexplicably, after spending the afternoon with the children, something quietly changed in his heart.

In short, in a moment of impulse, he put aside the City Lord Seal.

Then, he was harmed by Xiahou Yi.

Lu Aotian could not stay for long and had already left.

Before leaving, Xing’er brought him a bag of hot jelly beans.

Su Xiaoxiao, Wei Qing, and Ling Yun sat around the stone table in the courtyard, staring at the City Lord Seal in front of them.

“Say what?”

Wei Qing spoke.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “If the City Lord Seal is gone, Erhu will be sad.”

Wei Qing was speechless.

Wei Qing looked at Ling Yun again.

Ling Yun took a deep breath. “When he’s sad, Dahu and Erhu will play and sing to make him happy.”

An image appeared in Wei Qing’s mind.

Wei Qing said to Ling Yun, “So quickly become the City Lord and give the City Lord Seal to Erhu to play with every day.”

Ling Yun was speechless.

Although they were joking, they quickly cut to the chase.

The reason why Xiahou Yi had not “slaughtered” the Hundred Flowers Palace for a long time had been found. He did not have the City Lord Seal, so he could not command all the sects on the island, especially the four major sects.

Therefore, he could only start by cutting off the wings of the Hundred Flower Palace and buying over and controlling the various sects.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Will he guess where the City Lord Seal is?”

Wei Qing thought for a moment and said, “He probably can’t guess. If he did, he would have sent someone to steal it. Moreover, he has been provoking the Hundred Flowers Palace previously to test if Ling Yun has the City Lord Seal. If Ling Yun did, he would have appeared with the City Lord Seal long ago.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Second Brother makes sense.”

Then, she looked at Ling Yun. “What are your plans next?”

Ling Yun said nothing.

Wei Qing said, “Succeeding the position of City Lord is the only way to resist Xiahou Yi.”

They all knew in their hearts that Ling Yun had no intention of returning to the Xiahou family. It was just that the situation was unforgiving. Either they died or Xiahou Yi died.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t say anything like “No matter what decision you make, we’ll support you.”

This matter concerned everyone’s life and death. He could not let his emotions affect him.

Wei Qing looked at Ling Yun and said, “Make a decision as soon as possible. I’m afraid we don’t have much time left.”

Xiahou Yi would not wait for death. If he could not obtain the City Lord Seal, he would definitely think of another way to command the major sects.

They could not rule out all methods.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “There’s another problem now. Xiahou Yi is already spreading the rumors that Ling Yun framed the City Lord. Even if we take out the City Lord Seal, Xiahou Yi can say that we snatched it. Moreover, this happens to be evidence of Ling Yun killing his father.”

Wei Qing said, “That’s right.”

Su Xiaoxiao frowned. “The situation is very disadvantageous to us.”

Xiahou Yi was too cunning. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had not missed anything.

However, it was precisely because he was too full of calculations that he got the location of the City Lord Seal wrong.

“Is there any news from Xie Jinnian?” Wei Qing asked.

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “Xie Jinnian is locked in the dungeon with a group of hounds guarding him. Even Wuhu can’t fly in.”

–

In the dark and damp dungeon.

Xie Jinnian sat cross-legged on the ground, his back against the cold and hard wall.

Suddenly, the cell door opened.

Xiahou Zheng walked in arrogantly.
